The total needed to fund these projects is $46,000.00, resulting in a deficit budget for this year. Anyone wishing to contribute to these projects can write a check to the Lafayette Rotary Club Foundation and put "Projects Fund" on the memo line.

    ♦ Registration for the October 26 & 27 District Conference may be done on line. The cost is $109 until August 1st, when it will increase to $129. Since we are the host club and no one needs to pay for hotel rooms, this is a great opportunity for a large percentage of our club to greet and welcome fellow Rotarians from the other 44 clubs in the District. Register now. Save money.

    ♦ The Harvest Dinner should be on our calendars. It is Thursday, October 25th. A mailing will be sent this week describing opportunities for sponsorships.This dinner is very important to the future of our local projects.

    ♦ The Club Board of Directors decided that a payment from the treasury to Polio Plus would not be made. Instead, members may designate Polio Plus when making an Every Rotarian Every Year contribution and receive a tax deduction.

    G eezers one and all I want you to hear
    E very word I say I want to be clear.
    E each wish for my wellness is really a sign.

    E ven as I sit here and think of you all,
    R otarians at table and shooting the breeze;
    S urely, with all your good work, the world is at ease.
